- Yet another artificial menses fluid is mentioned in U.S. Pat. No. 4,321,924, incorporated herein by reference in its entirety, at column 7, lines 51-60.
- a bodily fluid simulant made from red blood cells in an amount between about 10 and about 60 weight percent, egg white in an amount between 20 and 50 weight percent, and plasma.
- an artificial menses fluid may be prepared as follows:
- the egg white was separated into thick and thin portions by straining the white through a 1000 micron nylon mesh for about 3 minutes, and the thinner portion discarded. Note that alternative mesh sizes may be used and the time or method may be varied provided the viscosity is at least that required.
- the thick portion of egg white which was retained on the mesh was collected and drawn into a 60 cc syringe which was then placed on a programmable syringe pump and homogenized by expelling and refilling the contents five times.
- the amount of homogenization was controlled by the syringe pump rate of about 100 ml/min, and the tubing inside diameter of about 0.12 inches. After homogenizing the thick egg white had a viscosity of about 20 centipoise at 150 sec -1 and was then placed in the centrifuge and spun to remove -debris and air bubbles at about 3000 rpm for about 10 minutes, though any effective method to remove debris and bubbles may be used.
- the thick, homogenized egg white which contains ovamucin, was added to a 300 cc FENWAL® TRANSFER PACK® container using a syringe. Then 60 cc of the swine plasma was added to the Transfer Pack® container. The Transfer Pack was clamped, all air bubbles removed, and placed in a Stomacher lab blender where it was blended at normal (or medium) speed for about 2 minutes. The Transfer Pack® container was then removed from the blender, 60 cc of swine red blood cells were added, and the contents mixed by hand kneading for about 2 minutes or until the contents appeared homogenous. A hematocrit of the final mixture showed a red blood cell content of about 30 weight percent and generally should be at least within a range of 28-32 weight percent for artificial menses made according to this example. The amount of egg white was about 40 weight percent.

- an artificial menses fluid it is important to note that though only one example of an artificial menses fluid is given herein, the inventors have found that a range of ingredients and preparation conditions may be used to produce menses with properties varying from the example and useable for testing.
- the inventors have found that the amount of red blood cells may be between about 10 and 60 weight percent or more particularly between about 25 and 40 weight percent.
- the egg white may be between about 20 and 50 weight percent or more particularly between about 20 and 40 weight percent.
- the balance may be plasma and, for example, an ingredient to simulate particulates.
- the resulting fluid is useable for testing as an artificial menses fluid.
- the preparation conditions may be varied by for example, centrifuging the ingredients at different speeds for different amounts of time from that shown in the example or straining the egg whites under different conditions,
- ingredients may be varied, for example, by using bovine blood or human blood or by using eggs from other than chickens. Any of these changes are intended to be within the scope of the invention and are a means of providing particular menses simulants which have specifically desired properties for various types of testing and product development.
- the artificial menses of this invention mimics the rheological and biochemical properties of genuine menses fluid.
